Good Ideas for Future Reading

Reese Witherspoon's Book Club Picks (click the link)

I noticed the third book down set in Shaker Heights, Ohio.  We lived just next to that area while Dave went to NCR tech schools.   In fact all the books sound good and several are being made into movies!

#1 Ladies Detective Agency

 The Making of #1 Ladies Detective Agency HBO Series:

I finally got this up on the blog. Warning: it takes a bit of time to upload.

Be patient.

You might have faster results going to youtube and watching. 

If that's not your cup of tea, follow this link.

#1 Ladies Detective Agency Youtube

(I added "the making of" to my google search. I think that overall one is really informative)

But any one of the episodes will introduce you to the characters, the landscape,

the culture and the clothing.

No hiding it -  I'm enchanted.

Please look at one episode before our next book club.

And thank you!

April is Awesome!

"Best Book Club ever - in  my humble opinion....Being able to ask the author, Marcia Rudin, questions about character development and her research, made our discussion so rich. And hearing from the variety of backgrounds of our group also added so much. But the star was our "guest speaker" and good friend, Jacqui Fogelberg.  She very eloquently and generously shared her journey and perspectives related to being a nun during much of the same time period as the book.

Then of course there was the good food and wine. A totally perfect afternoon" 

Jacqui  a beautiful woman inside and out.                       

Never do we go hungry!

Facebook time with the author, Marcia Rudin

Marcia Rudin, the author of our next book Hear My Voice will join us via FaceTime at our next meeting!

Hear My Voice

It's spring practice and here is our newest read, selected by Noreen. 

(recognize the last name?)

"As three women attend an awards ceremony in their honor, they relive their complicated personal and religious journeys. While listening to the speakers, each struggles with a difficult choice she must make by the end of the evening that will forever change her life.

Mona Sullivan seeks peace and certitude when she becomes a nun, but must adjust to tumultuous changes in her Church. As she becomes an activist public figure, she must decide whether to stay in the Church or leave to become an Episcopal priest.

Sandra Miller embarks on a long and difficult journey to become a rabbi at a time when women weren’t accepted. Now she must choose between her childhood sweetheart and her successful."

Catch Up Time!!!

October: Lisa choose Being Mortal, a meaningful book for her. ...a tough read, but we each took away a new understanding. 

November:  Met at Kathy's home - our first time since her big remodel. Lovely!  Kelly selected the book A Gentleman from Moscow.  Fascinating!

January : we met at Kelly's home. As usual so much fun, great food, the book was Kathy's choice Two Kinds of Truth - good old  Harry Bosch.

Roz has selected The Lilac Girls, for February 25th.
